Recently, rapper Asian Doll took to social media to express her dissatisfaction with high MUA prices, stating that $150 is too much for a full face of makeup. The Crayon Instance founder Supa Cent stepped in to hold with the Chicago rapper.

On the other manus, some professional person MUAs respectfully disagreed with that sentiment, citing that the cost of makeup alone exceeds $150 and that price is reasonable for a full face of professionally done makeup. Still, other beauties reminisced on when makeup artists charged only $65 for a total face up of makeup just a few years ago, saying that the prices have become outrageous when one makeup pallet could comprehend upwards to 100 faces.

For big events such as a nuptials or red-carpet glam, I wouldn't mind paying top tier prices to make certain that my special day goes off without whatsoever hiccups. However, if it's a standard makeup expect for a dark out, I would definitely look for prices on the lower end to ensure I'm not breaking the banking company. The general consensus seems to exist that if you want a high-quality makeup look and so you may need to exist prepared to pay high-quality prices to achieve the glam you want. However, if you're comfortable with a more soft-glam look, then it's totally reasonable to expect to pay less than $150 for your face.
